How to extract audio from a video

  1. Open a video, or drop it on the page.
  2. Choose MP3, M4A or WAV.
  3. Select Save the sound, then download the audio file.

MP3, M4A or WAV

MP3 plays on everything. M4A keeps the AAC sound most phone videos already have, often copied without any re-encoding, so it is small and loses nothing. WAV is uncompressed, for editing in audio software.

From any video you can open

MP4 and MOV from phones and cameras, WebM from the web, MKV from anywhere. The sound is decoded by your browser and saved as a new file.

Your video stays on your device

The sound is extracted in your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded, so recordings of meetings, lessons and family moments stay private.

Questions about Extract audio

Is my video uploaded?

No. The sound is extracted in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.

Which format should I choose?

MP3 for music players and sharing, M4A for the best quality at a small size (usually copied as it is), and WAV for editing.

Does it lose quality?

M4A from a video with AAC sound is copied exactly. MP3 is encoded again at the bitrate you pick; 192 kbps sounds the same as the original to most people.

Can I turn the sound into text?

Yes: Scissor Audio's audio to text tool transcribes the sound of a video with on-device AI.
